Manor Leas Junior Academy
Activities to support Oracy
When we start a new text with pupils, we consider how we are going to hook them into learning and engage them with the theme. The more engaged they are with the text and the better they understand the context, the easier they are going to find writing about it.
Base their writing around this theme, developing background knowledge and understanding
Use drama, role-play and spoken language activities to support pupils in considering the audience and purpose for their writing
Plan in paired and group discussions linked to the writing tasks
Encourage oral rehearsal of their writing from plans
